Good news! Cristian Chivu has been named in José Mourinho's starting lineup for tonight's match against Serse Cosmi's Amaranto. It's the Romania captain's first start since that horrific head injury sustained in the 1-0 win at Chievo on 6 January.

Full time. Inter beat Livorno 3-0 with two goals from Eto'o and one from Maicon. The result sees the Nerazzurri move four points clear of AC Milan (beaten in Parma) and Roma (victorious in Bologna) who share second spot.
